Cheers for the pics Alex!

 

Thanks Malc. Shes not bad. Body work will be getting some serious attention at the end of the year as its getting rusty in places and the rear panel is bent from a nob that fit the back of me. Although at the same time I dont want to make her too mint as she is a daily and I dont want to spend so much money on her then feel worried about driving her anywhere.

Got the carpet in. Still need to do the corner bits but most of it is in. Its an ok fit but then it is just a cheap carpet set. I would like to maybe get a Newton one at a later date.

Got a few pics of the car from the weekend in Newquay.

Notice in the second pic you can see I painted my rear light surrounds black forgot to put them in here. Its a small thing but looks so much better. I have now got another set of bumpers and under riders for this that are a bit crusty but straight. Will get powder coated black. Hoping to get my motorsport wellers back on soon as well and get rid of the pink things!

Yep she is a isle of wight car. Would really like to get some more info on here so if you know anyone that could help that would be great!

I'm not too sure what to suggest but I did notice that someone had placed an advert on the Isle of Wight classifieds website (wightbay.com) asking for information on a mk1 he owned from new or something and wanted to see if it was still on the island, don't know if that is worth a go. you never know!

Well not updated this in a while! Since getting Jenny my red mini back from the body shop and my dad buying that mess of an estate my clubby as taking a back seat really.

 

Mainly because not much has happened with her other then her getting a little more rusty each day haha. Since the last update I started a new job with a bit more of a commute and she's doing alright I'm glad to say. I was gonna get another car to use but for the time being she is ok. She does about 50-60 miles a day now.

 

Only interesting pic I have is of 2 deloreans I found and thought as they are my dream car and cheeky pic was in order!

Only other thing is that she had her MOT today and she passed first time with only 5 advisories which I'll get sorted within the next few weeks so I am happy with that! Thats about it really. Happy New Year everyone! Think i'll treat the car to a late crimbo gift as she's been so good!
